This worries me:

CNN translates politicians using AI.

In this clip, Macron is speaking French, but if you do not speak French, YouTube will switch the sound to an AI voice which sounds a bit like Macron.

So now, when an American politician is listening to the President of France, he is no longer hearing what a real, human translator KNOWS Macron is saying. He is hearing what AI GUESSES Macron is saying.

What happens, if AI gets it wrong?

@randahl They also did that with a French senator railing against the orange regime. It was when I searched for a longer clip that I realized he hadn’t spoken in English. It had surprised me that he had, so something to be aware of now.
